Jazz

Jazzland is a New York jazz label that was established in 1960 by Bill Grauer and Orrin Keepnews as a companion to their Riverside Records label. Originally focused on reissuing Riverside recordings, the label soon shifted its focus to new recordings, particularly material by Cannonball Adderly.

In 1972, Jazzland was bought along with its parent Riverside label by Fantasy. Since then, the label has continued to be a prominent force in the jazz music industry, releasing exceptional recordings from talented artists.

With its rich history and dedication to showcasing the best of jazz music, Jazzland remains an influential and respected label within the genre. From classic reissues to groundbreaking new releases, Jazzland continues to captivate audiences with its diverse catalog of extraordinary jazz recordings.

Since forming in 2018 Rymden has established itself as one of the leading piano trios to ever emerge from the Nordic Jazz scene. All three members bring with them long-confirmed and lauded histories as innovators in jazz: Berglund and ?str?m via the Esbj?rn Svensson Trio and their own projects (Tonbruket and Magnus ?str?m Band respectively); Wesseltoft via his New Conception of Jazz and other projects. Now, after several albums and many concerts, they meet KORK, an orchestra capable of responding to the trifold creative power that Rymden vigorously generates. KORK, for over three-quarters of a century has followed its own musical curiosity across genres, from "standard" orchestral repertoire, both classical and contemporary, to jazz, rock, and pop. Through close association with NRK, KORK has been heard across the world through its participation in the annual Nobel Peace Prize concert and the Eurovision Song Contests in 1986 and 1996. The combination of Rymden and KORK brings even greater contrast to music that already had its fair share of light and shade and brings a broader textural palette that enriches and defamiliarizes the compositions. These new arrangements expand on their source material, creating a different musical world without sacrifice of its original spirit. The compositions, already filled with drama or meditative passages, menace or light-hearted humour, rhythmic drive or fragmentary expression, are repainted, sometimes with the lightest of nuanced touches, other times with densely layered maximalism. Where the collaboration of RYMDEN and KORK may have been unexpected for some, the perfect alignment of the results suggest that it was inevitable.
